Default Compression check results
I have a jdm 92-95 h22a stock. I did a compression check yesterday and these are my results.
200-207-205-205 psi

is that bad? If so, what is causing it to be so high?

Don't forget to pull the fuelpump fuse, and hold it at WOT (wide open throttle) (i.e. floored accelerator pedal) while testing each cylinder
